Re: Did Reika as Gantz to revive Korono or Suzuki.

But Reika did say the oldman. I'm thinking maybe Gantz is telepathetic
and read her mind. And saw that she really wanted Kurono. If not
Gantz did a halfassed jog again. It would've been better if Akira was revived.

Re: Did Reika as Gantz to revive Korono or Suzuki.

@Kaliayev: Yeah, we're just arguing semantics; while the whole group was in the room, she asked to revive the Old Man. However, when she came back to the room, she started to ask Gantz to revive Suzuki, but she changed her mind before she completed saying his name. Gantz didn't just assume that she was talking about Old Man, so she was able to change her mind and get her own Kei, instead.

Nobody is voting about the original request; we all know that she asked for Suzuki before Gantz crashed. We're all arguing and voting about whether she asked for him to be revived again, when she was alone with Gantz, and Gantz just revived the wrong person, or if Reika deliberately asked Gantz to revive Kei instead of the Old Man. Most of us think that since she had just given the first name, Gantz hadn't started rezzing him yet, and she was able to change her request. Therefore, she asked Gantz to revive Kurono when it counted.

Re: Did Reika as Gantz to revive Korono or Suzuki.

Oh there's actually a thread for this. And I can't help to think it's fairly obvious that she did ask Kurono. Hell the rejection foreshadowed this imo and while I hoped that it wouldn't turn out this way it just had to happen. If she didn't change it to Kurono there was no point in Gantz fucking up and her going alone. Hell he created this whole scene so she could walk bye herself in that room to get her own Kurono so that she wouldn't have needed to ressurect him in front of Kurono or succumb under peer pressure of him ressing others. That was just to convenient and when I saw her walking in that room bye her own with an unknown guy in the room I already knew how late it was.

That's exactly what I think! Oku wouldn't do the whole chapter about Reika getting rejected and then another one like this just to make it out that Gantz "read what was truly in her heart" and revived Kei...
I think the only reason we're even discussing this is because we have nothing else to talk about

Right. The odds of there being another Suzuki in the room are very big; maybe Gantz needs a full name to rezz someone, unless they have give a nickname. I mean, there's probably only one "Cherry" or "Old Man". But she specifically stated "Suzuki ...." so she probably changed her mind. I don't even know why we're arguing this since I think it's almost certain that she said "Kei Kurono" immediately afterwards.

Plus, this whole thing about her "wanting" to revive Kei and "Gantz reading the emotions in her heart" is crap in my opinion: I mean, how many times has Gantz done something that the Gantzers actually wanted? He screws people over whenever he has a chance.

Re: Did Reika as Gantz to revive Korono or Suzuki.

It's all about the chip in their heads, I would say. Reika felt something in her heart/emotions and went to her head and went to the chip and the word Kurono was never uttered out loud. Gantz was then thinking, "Old Man nahhh, we both want Kurono."

Re: Did Reika as Gantz to revive Korono or Suzuki.

I just think the chances of it being said off screen are lower than her actually only saying Suzuki.

Reika is the only one so far to revive someone when she really really really wanted someone else. It was peer pressure from Kurono. He was staring at her when she first chose.

Gantz knows more about them than just simple surveillance, I would say. So, it's just as crazy for me to believe it was said off screen. Based on all the emotions going on and mystery of gantz abilities, I don't think it was psychic, but that's a possiblilty. I figure he can read more into their thoughts/data/whatever then it shows.

When it comes to Gantz searching japanese idol mind, it's more simple than that theory. He just chose what she really wanted (pretty obvious what she wanted), and Gantz gave her what she wanted.

It wasn't hinted very well either that it was said off screen, so I'm taking it at face value, that Gantz chose Kurono, even though Reika verbally said Suzuki.

I'd say that's a strong enough fact in the last sentence, to say... you didn't win yet
